Shawnee County, KS Birth, Death, Marriage, Divorce Records

Shawnee County vital records can be obtained through the Kansas Department of Health by filling out an application for a birth record, death record, marriage record or divorce record. Applications and information regarding fees and methods of ordering can be found on the Kansas Department of Health website. Early vital records for Kansas can be hard to find since official records did not begin to be filed with the state until 1911. It may be possible to obtain earlier records from the Shawnee County Clerk's Office or with the Kansas State Historical Society for Historical Research. Early records were sometimes kept with the county in records volumes and may still exist.
